:: Weekend Lovelies {favorite things} ::

Welcome to this lovely, yet rainy edition of Weekend Lovelies {favorite things}!  Sara and I have been waiting for the rain.  Yes I know, we often brag via Instagram about our lovely weather, but California is in dire need of rain or else those pretty pictures are going look barren and dry.  Speaking of pretty pictures, as a family we were able to get out of our usual 5-mile radius and return to our beloved Long Beach.  Mason requested a visit to The Queen Mary as his incentive reward for filling up his star chart. 

Sara and I met in college and lived in Long Beach up until we both got married.  It’s an amazing and beautiful city. It’s full of off the beaten path shops, restaurants, and gorgeous art deco buildings.  Perhaps you aren’t familiar with Long Beach, or maybe you have passed it by {maybe you’ve heard about it through Snoop {now Snoop Lion}… living in the LBC!}, I highly recommend putting it on your radar and paying this gorgeous city a little visit.  Better yet, email Sara and I, and we would be happy to be your tour guides {wink}! We are also toying with the idea of letting you in on some of our favorite places to go, and fun things to do, while visiting California… maybe through our Instagram feed? By the way, have you had a chance to check us out over there?  It’s the perfect way to get a sneak peak of our recipes on the blog and some of our moments with family and friends.  Go and check us out, and share with us some of your favorite IG feeds!

So… this weekend, Sara and I have a fun list of favorites for you to enjoy! If you are a blogger or have an Etsy shop, we’d be thrilled if you’d link-up to our favorite things! Enjoy the weekend, friends… and feel free to say “hello” by leaving a comment below! {xo} [Read more…]
